I have unfortunately gone through a few of these watches. Problems with my watch have been the following:1. Backlight burns out frequently
2. Poor quality on the wrist band
3. Can't remove battery on your own, you have to send it back to the manufacturer or spend obscene amounts of money to have a watch maker do it (this feature has been remedied on newer models.
The concept of this watch is great, but the quality is quite poor.
